Timber Rattlesnake

On June 10-11, 2013, INHF staff and the bluffland and statewide land stewardship intern crews worked on an INHF conservation easement in northeast Iowa. While working, they came across a few slithery friends.

The timber rattlesnakes the land stewardship department encountered didn't cause them any trouble, but the group took care to avoid getting too close to the venomous reptiles.
